ultracalming™

Itching, burning, stinging and redness are the obvious signs of sensitive skin. The triggers behind these sensations are less clear: genetics, hormones, stress, chemical assaults, foods and even aggressive skin treatments can intensify skin’s highly reactive state.
The common thread behind irritation, flushing and stinging is inflammation. When paired with the loss of skin’s protective barrier, skin health is compromised and becomes highly reactive.

I have dry dehydrated skin. I've tried all the dermalogica cleansers except for oily shin and this is the very best. I do use the pre cleansing balm at night before the cleanser. It does not strip my skin and it does feel clean. It's totally the best thing ever for dry dehydrated skin.

I didn't know what to expect because this product doesn't suds up and feels different than regular face washes. I almost expected to break out because of it. That just wasn't the case! I love this especially in the winter months because it doesn't strip my skin dry.

This product would be great if it acted as an actual cleanser as well. I don't like the idea of having to use a cleanser that removes all my makeup prior to using this. Too much work. I thought I'd try this product since the special cleansing gel completely dries out my skin (to the point where it's flaky), but I should've informed myself first before purchasing it. I'll keep it since it left my skin feeling smooth, but probably won't purchase again.

This has been my go-to cleanser for a few years. When I relapse and think I should try another brand, I always come back. The smell is pleasant but not overpowering and it thoroughly cleanses my skin without irritating it. My redness has decreased and it has left my skin very soft.

I never had skin products until I started using dermalogica. It completly breaks me out horribly. I am not allergic to any of the stuff in these products. I have hyper pigmentation from these dermalogica and had a horrible break out covering my enitre face and I even have small pitted scars now. I never really make bad reviews but I literally cannot believe how HORRIBLE my face looks. I don't have sensitive skin but I would say that this cleanser is the best one from this brand. But even then I would never buy any dermalocgia ever in my life. I never had a bad reaction to anything before and I am always testing out new products. Every time I look at my face I am sad because of how bad it looks compared to before. I am really sorry I ever even used dermalogica in the first place. I just hope that my face goes back to normal eventually but I don't know if it will.

Q:

Hi there is the ultra calming line okay to use with eczema? I have very sensitive skin on my face with very dry patches on my chin and forehead area close to my eyebrows and I have used dermalogica in the past my skin has changed and have never used the ultracalming line before.

Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. Only a doctor can treat and diagnose Eczema. That being said, our Ultra Calming products may help with the symptoms associated with Eczema. Like redness, irritation, etc.

Kind Regards,Bernadette

Q:

Does this product also help maintain clear skin and clear spontaneous break outs? I get some acne, but not often, and have pink/red skin that is sensitive. I like the clean ingredients in this product, but I want to make sure it can help keep my skin clear and not just calm.
